Your NFC Championship Open Thread
Supposedly there are more fellows playing in this game, going by the names of Bush, Peterson, Brees and others. That's not what I hear. All I hear is Favre Favre Favre....

Super Bowl? Eh; Anquan Boldin Has Bigger Things To Worry About. Like Anquan Boldin
Conspiculously absent from the Arizona Cardinals' wild on-field victory celebration on Sunday: A certain Mr. Anquan Boldin. There are several good TV shows on Sunday night and he forgot to set his TiVo....
Not What Eagles Fans Want To See This Morning
The boys at the Pennsylvania Dept. of Transportation had an important bulletin for eastbound motorists on the Pennsylvania Turnpike this morning. Some commuters were not amused. [Philly Edge]...

Congratulations, Buzzsaw
Can't say that this isn't a massive disappointment for both Donovan McNabb and my skin, but the scrappy Arizona Cardinals did what the scrappy Arizona Cardinals do, I guess. So did the Eagles, unfortunately....

And, Somehow, The Philadelphia Eagles Will Meet The Buzzsaw In The NFC Championship

NFC Championship: Second Half
Elisha has been solid, but he hasn't done quite enough to put his team in a good position. Favre is doing Favre-like things and Mike McCarthy still refuses to run the ball. One correction from the first half, it appears that Brady Poppinga has three tackles (not the six I estimated). I guess I'm ju...
